(2) Homenaje a París, ciudad castigada por el incendio de Notre Dame. Otro tema dedicado a París, probablemente la capital europea del Jazz, este The Last Time I Saw Paris, con Johnny Hodges en el saxo alto, Jimmy Woode en el bajo, Sam Woodyard en la batería y Billy Strayhorn al piano. Grabdado en septiembre de 1958, en Nueva York. Solidarios con la capital de todos.
The last time I saw Paris
The last time I saw Paris
Her heart was warm and gray
I heard the laughter of her heart in every street cafe
The last time I saw Paris
Her trees were dressed for spring
And lovers walked beneath those trees
And birds found songs to sing
I dodged the same old taxicabs
That I had dodged for years
The chorus of the squeaky horns
Was music to my ears
Oh the last time I saw Paris
Her heart was warm and gay
No matter how they changed her
I'll remember her ah that way
Dodged the same old taxicabs
That I had dodged for years
The chorus of the squeaky horns
Was music to my ears
Yeh, the last time I saw Paris
Her heart was warm and gay
No matter how they change her
I'll remember her that way
The last time I saw Paris
The last time I saw Paris
(Oscar Hammerstein & Jerome Kern)
